Us Cash Advance - Challenged but not ***
I received a call from Sam Wilson (Asian speaking gentlemen). His return number (858) 412-0516. Apparently, he was calling to inform me that I had a payday loan...

US CASH ADVANCE - BIG SCAM ON US BY MIDDLE EASTERNERS

Our store began receiving calls from some middle eastern sounding man speaking relatively poor English on Monday asking for Staci. We have a cashier named Staci and they asked us to relay a message to her that the "legal dept" was calling for her and would call back. They would not leave a number. They called back 4 more times in a row.

On Tuesday it started happening again and I finally got involved when my assistant manager notified me about the calls and asked me to get them to stop calling. I answered the phone. There was a lot of noise in the background including a busy signal and I could hear other people talking and could hear my own voice being re-broad-casted in the "room" they were in. I asked who I was speaking with and was told the "legal dept" so I said "the legal dept from where?" and he said something in his gibberish and I said I needed a call back number (that is a law that they give it) so I could give the message to Staci. He refused and kept saying that she took out a payday loan and if I didn't cooperate they would "come after me".... Right!. So he hung up then called right back and started all over again, I got him to tell me it was "US Cash Advance". This happened about 20 times in the next 5 minutes with it finally culminating with him using the F word on me to which I told him he had no idea how way out of his league he was. I finally got a coaches whistle out and blew his brains out and he stopped calling. The touch tone #1 also works very effectively if held for about 10 seconds.

I googled US CASH ADVANCE and found many complaints and articles about this situation. I then proceeded to call the FCC and finally was directed to the FTC (1-877-382-4357) and filed a complaint. The young lady I spoke with informed me that they knew about this and that "everybody is looking for them". I told her about the harassing calls, how they were preventing us from conducting business and about his use of the F word on the phone (that adds to the charges) and told her if/when they ever caught them would she please let me know. They think they are using prepaid cell phones ( I disagree, it had to be a land line because they were hitting the redial button and literally were ringing the phone the same few seconds they hung up, you can't do that on a cell phone.) She stated that they have been very successful at getting "little old ladies who don't even know what a payday loan is" to pay them money. They call them and tell them that one of their kids is in big trouble and they need to pay this bill or else they are going to come and take away the house of the little old lady and they actually do it - they actually wire these bottom feeders money without even checking it out. Their drug of choice is wire transfer. These may be terrorist based in some way and then are using the money they steal to finance their operations.

The best advice from the FTC - "ignore it and it will go away" DON'T ENGAGE THEM. Just hang up. (or blow a coaches whistle into the receiver with all your might"

Anyone who gets contacted by this or anything similar please contact the FTC at 1-877-382-4357.

I got an email from one of these "Dregs of the Earth" yesterday. I was at work winding up a busy week and had to be subjected to this nonsense. I'm like everybody else trying to make it and to hear from creeps like this that prey on innocent people makes me sick. Do they think we don't have enough sense to google them? Mine even came with their fake arrest warrant that I have verified as a fake. Honestly! Believe me, their number has been blocked from my phone and I have no intention of doing anything but try to help put them out of their misery in such pathetic so called jobs! A weaker person or someone with a heart condition could buckle under this type of scare tactics. How do they sleep at night?

These are criminals and they harass good people endlessly. DO NOT ENGAGE THEM IN CONVERSATION. They are a pre paid money scam call center in India.. They scam people out of funds using harassment techniques which they are taught. They use foul language, have no proper English skills yet they lie and claim they are official. They give you fake American names . They scream at you and use every possible way to scam money out of you. They call my phone every hour on the hour even after I blocked the number they call in again on another number. Use a whistle to blow their brains out and hang up, block the numbers and report them. They are ***. They called my elderly Aunt from the same number in the middle of the night (8008454951) and pretended to be her granddaughter crying and screaming for money to be sent asap western union. She knew better. Once she called them as a scam they harass her with up to 100 calls a day screaming in her answering machine even 6 months later. They threaten harm if you do not put money on pre pay cards . They threaten your family, they threaten to beat you up, they threaten to stalk you at your house for money. I have changed my number, blocked their numbers and now I use a whistle as they continue to call. DO NOT SPEAK TO THEM! When someone I knew also called them out for being a scam, they harassed her for months screaming about pre pay cards or going to jail. No matter what they say, just hang up after you blow your whistle !!!

I was getting these calls and one day I received 40 calls in a 2 hour period! My cell phone company changed my number (which I hated because I had this number for a long time). But these people had my social security number, DOB and my address! I reported it to the FTC and the person I talked to stated that they were getting a lot of complaints and that they were overwhelmed and are looking for ways to protect consumer and so far they are trying to educate people on these types of scams. When I called the company they stated that the scammers are just using that company to spam people.

I have been getting harassing calls from these numbers for months. The 217 960 6265 is particularly threatening and evil. I have blocked them all and they call through on some subset of the same number.

I did phone number reverses on the numbers that were calling me from here and they all went back to Land Lines Also. I looked up the public records for the people I supposedly talked to and found that they all lived near the phone numbers I had reversed.

I have even been threatened by some of these people because i told them i was reporting their phone #'s to you plus fcc plus anybody else i can think of to help me stop them...All other agencies have been of no help whatsoever so far..

This has been happening to me for the last 15 days. I ignore most of them but every once and a while (on the days where they come 5 and 10 mins apart starting at 5:30 a.m. I'll answer and yell at them. They always ask for "Tammy" (not me), it's always on my cell, they sometimes say I've been awarded $5k and sometimes that I have legal issues pending. All Middle Eastern. I've threatened, I've tried to get to a supervisor. It is insane. I filed with the do not call list but that takes 30 days. I tried Verizon (my cell carrier). They only allow you to block 5 numbers at a time and these guys use at least 30 to 40. Honestly, there has to be a way to stop this. Heaven forbid they reach someone who buys this ***. It is absolute harassment. I'm going to call the FTC and report my experience like others have done but since I see posts back to 2011 regarding this issue it appears that my choices are to see if the do not call either works or makes me rich or to change my phone number.

I received an email in my spam fold from someone in the US District COurt stating a warrant had been issued for my arrest. I have never dealt with this loan company. It is odd that they would be sending me a copy of an arrest warrant which would clearly give me time to hide if I was trying to avid this company. These people are sick.

I was just scammed by these dirt bags had tooget a green dot money card too show 1st payment so I did once done they were going too transfer money too my account in 15 minutes after 20 no money I called they said they had issues with there server and needed another 200 dollars too western union I said no and they took the 115 dollars onmy green dot card.

North cash is a scam don't use them, I borrowed $200.00 and was told that I had to pay them back $260.00 when they took money from my account they took $2600.00, they return 2340 minus the money I owed for my pay day loan but now I am receiving phones call daily saying I still owe them, even though I have an email saying account paid in full. This has been a nightmare, and I am not the only one this is happening too!

I received tons of missed calls and messages from these guys do today I answered and almost fell for it till I told my boyfriend who is a cop and they called.back and they didn't believe he was the demanded ,1000 from me or they were going to arrest me at work and reposes my car and they said I vCard was a criminal and they also had my social security number these guys are idiots do the police are investigating it but they can't locate where the people are calling from with the numbers there calling from tricky bastards

I received a call again today with another middle eastern gentleman saying I had fraud charges against me that I had an outstanding payday loan with us cash advance and have received 4 or 5 calls in the past using cash net and others that I don't recall because I was driving and unable to write down the info. I was contacted by Charles Anderson from a 855 number and there was also lots of background noise.
